Descrizione

Are you in the arts and considering a management role? If you are currently in management or are seeking a management position, consider this postgraduate program from UIC. Creative cultural industries -the performing arts, music and the audiovisual and publishing industries- are based on a combination of creativity and production. Today these are cultural sectors which are growing rapidly, and this will continue into the future.Professionals in these sectors should be aware of the work processes linked both to creation -theatre companies, dance, music, production- as well as the management and production of shows, festivals, cultural facilities and commercial products for material or digital production. For that reason, they need not only great sensitivity with regards to artistic creation and a knowledge of new trends, but also knowledge of the management tools that will allow them to design viable projects and companies.This Postgraduate Degree in the Management of Creative Cultural Industries, taught in English, offers this double perspective: it covers the analysis of the creative cultural industries sector, and the specific work processes it involves, as well as providing the specific tools to manage culture.
